So how to defend against such an 'ideal' attack weapon? This is also the focus of research in various countries, especially countries that have not mastered this technology. Because they are afraid of such a large-scale swarm of drones, they have conducted a lot of research. Research.
Although many tactical methods have been developed, such as missile defense, anti-aircraft artillery defense, fighter aircraft defense, and radio interference defense, etc.
However, it is still difficult to deal with such a large-scale drone swarm attack.
Large-scale swarm drones flying in the air will not be passively attacked. They will also monitor the surrounding environment at all times and choose emergency evasion when encountering an attack.
Moreover, for the aforementioned tactical methods, the air defense positions are relatively fixed and are easily targeted for attack.
So is there a more flexible way? This is also the focus of research in various countries.
Wu Hao and the others are also exploring this field. Since they developed the cluster array control technology and successfully developed the swarm attack system, they immediately received related development tasks, specifically targeting this large-scale swarm attack system. Conduct research on interception technology for man-machine swarms.
The military leaders looked far ahead. After seeing the power of this technology, they were keenly aware of the threats posed by this technology.
We currently have it under our own control, but if the enemy masters this technology, how will we defend ourselves? If we cannot defend ourselves, then we will end up in a cocoon, and the weapons and equipment we have developed will turn around and hit us.
So the military immediately began to develop defense and interception techniques and tactics to deal with large-scale swarm drone attacks. As important contributors to cluster array control technology, Wu Hao and others naturally received the task in this regard.
After continuous research, they have also developed centralized response methods and related technologies for this large-scale swarm of drones.
One of the two air defense systems displayed this time, the light field area air defense system and the light field short-range air defense laser interception system, is used to deal with large-scale swarm drone attacks.
But, these two air defense systems can still be used to deal with small- and medium-sized drone swarm attacks, but it is still a bit difficult to deal with large-scale swarm drone swarm attacks.
Especially in the scenario where drones are attacking and covering the sky, these two systems seem to be somewhat weak.
So is there any weaponry specifically designed to deal with such large-scale swarm drone attacks? Wu Hao and the others initially envisioned using lasers to intercept.
Later, I thought that using drones to counter drones might also be a very good idea. In reality, there are also examples of missiles being used to intercept missiles, so why not use drones to connect drones.
Attack drones and air defense interception drones are actually the same, but the attack target has changed. Attack drones mainly deal with ground targets, while air defense interception drones only attack attack drones in the air.
The idea of using drones to intercept drones can be realized by simply changing the target.
But it is easy to say it, but it is more difficult to actually implement it.
Use large-scale air defense interception drone swarms to intercept large-scale swarm drone attacks that attack intruders. The two major fleets attack each other. How to coordinate hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of drones, how to determine the attack target, avoid accidental damage, and how to effectively control them are all very difficult problems.
Wu Hao had never brought it up before because the relevant conditions were not mature enough. Now that this lightweight field area air defense system was successfully developed, he saw that the conditions were mature, so he immediately started the project.
But, in Lin Jiaming's view, although this idea is genius and creative, it is very difficult to implement it in real time. At first glance it seems very simple, just changing the goal, but in fact it is very difficult and involves many problems.
The meeting was over here. After saying goodbye to Lin Jiaming and the others who were thinking a lot, Wu Hao and the others immediately took a special plane back to Anxi.
As for Lin Jiaming and the others, they still need to stay here for two days. After completing the relevant finishing work, they will return to the northwest research and development base with the equipment.
This time, in addition to him, Lin Wei and their entourage, there were two more people on Wu Hao's special plane, Luo Kai and his assistant.
Sitting opposite Wu Hao and the others, Luo Kai looked at the environment inside the private jet with curiosity. Then he tried the softness of the airline seat and smiled at Wu Hao: "This private jet is really good, much better than the business jet I called it when I came here.
Although that business jet is not bad, it is far from the same level as your private jet. "
Haha, Wu Hao smiled and said: "Bombardier is also a very good business jet, not as bad as you said."
Luo Kai said with a smile: "It's good. Compared with the transport plane I took before, it's really in the sky and on the ground. You don't know, in the past, our Air Force had to go out on business trips, and there was a benefit, that is, flying on the plane."
Taking a flight? Lin Wei, sitting next to Wu Hao, asked curiously.
Yes, that's right, take a flight. Luo Kai nodded and explained with a smile: "Just to see if there are any transport planes or other military aircraft going to the place where we want to go or the nearby airport, and then go to the airport. Compared to taking the train, this kind of flight is more convenient." Flying is definitely a lot more convenient and faster.
However, the experience is very bad. Is it a military aircraft? It doesn’t pay much attention to comfort. Moreover, the cabin is very empty and there is no insulation or air conditioning.
It's okay in summer, and there's no problem with riding. It's just that the noise is relatively loud, and people who are not used to sitting may not be able to adapt to it and can't rest.
But if it's winter, it's very cold inside the airport, especially at high altitudes, where the temperature inside is very low. So when we call, we have to put on military coats and wrap ourselves tightly so as not to get cold.
The more you sit on it, the more you get used to it. If we were asked to sleep in a transport plane, we would all start snoring. "
Hehehe... Hearing Luo Kai's introduction, Wu Hao and the people next to him laughed softly.
Luo Kai also smiled and said: "The conditions are much better now, and the riding experience of the new transport aircraft is much better than the old Y8 and IL-76.
Moreover, we now have our own general aviation aircraft and business jets, so it is much more convenient to go anywhere. Of course, sometimes people are still willing to use such military aircraft because of convenience. "
